The aim of this work was to compare cortical beta oscillatory activity between young (YA) and older (OA) adults during the assessment of ankle proprioception. We analyzed the response time (RT) to kinesthetic perception ...

Objectives: The response time (RT) to kinesthetic perception has been used as a proprioceptive measurement, for example, in older individuals. However, the RT cannot provide information on impairments at specific stages ...

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of passive body heating on the sleep patterns of patients with fibromyalgia. METHODS: Six menopausal women diagnosed with fibromyalgia according to the criteria determined by the American ...

Oscillation frequencies presence in electromyography Biofeedback records was assessed in 16 hemiplegic patients. A single evaluation or treatment session was conducted in every patient in one of the following conditions: ...

Landslides often affect large areas, developing latent due to the slowness of the internal dynamics and in most cases only notable by geomorphologic evidences such as soil fissures, which in several cases can be the ...

The main objective of this PhD thesis was to evaluate the effects of including active pauses and changing work pace on the neck-shoulder region of women during a repetitive simulated industrial task, considering the ...

Sleep is beneficial to learning, but the underlying mechanisms remain controversial. The synaptic homeostasis hypothesis (SHY) proposes that the cognitive function of sleep is related to a generalized rescaling of synaptic ...

El dolor lumbar es un problema de salud creciente en el mundo industrializado. A pesar de los altos costos médicos requeridos para su manejo, la prevalencia de dolor lumbar está aumentando.(1) El dolor lumbar es una condición ...

Objectives The aims of the present study were: (i) to analyze the associations of the time spent in daily activities (i.e., lie, recline, passive sit, active sit, stand, walk at slow pace, walk at average pace, walk at ...
